		                        			Objective:To explore the level of fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) in preschool children in Beijing and analyze the influencing factors.Methods:Preschool students aged 3-5 in Beijing were selected from May to July 2017.Healthy children were screened through questionnaire survey and on-site physical examination, and their FeNO levels were detected.Results:A total of 317 healthy children were enrolled, including 161 males and 156 females.There was no significant difference in FeNO levels between different genders ( P>0.05). The geometric mean value of FeNO was 8.2 ppb in male(95% CI: 7.0-9.3 ppb)and 8.7 ppb in female (95% CI: 7.4-10.1 ppb). There were statistical differences in FeNO levels among the 3 age groups ( F=4.63, P<0.05). The geometric mean value of FeNO was 7.2 ppb in 3-year-old children (95% CI: 5.5-8.9 ppb), 8.8 ppb in 4-year-old children (95% CI: 7.4-10.2 ppb), and 9.2 ppb in 5-year-old children (95% CI: 7.7-10.7 ppb). The geometric mean value of FeNO of healthy preschool children was 8.5 ppb (95% CI: 7.6-9.3 ppb). There was a positive correlation between FeNO and height ( r=0.135, P<0.05), but there was no significant correlation between FeNO and weight. Conclusions:The geometric mean value of FeNO in healthy preschool children in Beijing is 8.5 ppb (95% CI: 7.6-9.3 ppb)and the 95% reference value is 23.5 ppb.The level of FeNO changes slightly with the increase of age, and height also affects the FeNO.It is highly feasible to use on-line tidal breathing method to measure FeNO of preschool children.

		                        			Objective:To investigate the relationship between bone mineral density (BMD) of lumbar spine and abdominal adipose tissue in adult males.Methods:A total of 1 374 healthy male examinees in the Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University from June 2018 to September 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The age ranged from 30 to 75 (50.9±0.30) years. Height, weight and waist circumference was measured and body mass index (BMI) was calculated. Quantitative CT (QCT) was used to measure the mean BMD value of L1 and L2. The abdominal subcutaneous fat area (SFA) and visceral fat area (VFA) at the level of L2 were measured as well. According to the BMD, the males were divided into three groups: normal group, osteopenic group and osteoporosis group. One-way ANOVA was applied to compare the age, BMI, VFA and SFA among three groups. LSD- t test was used for multiple comparisons, and Pearson correlation was used to analyze the correlation between age, BMI, VFA, SFA and lumbar BMD. Results:Totally 807 healthy males were in normal group, 451 in osteopenic group and 116 in osteoporosis group. There were significant differences in age, BMI and VFA among normal group, osteopenic group and osteoporosis group ( F=237.939, 5.788, 4.919, P<0.001, 0.003, 0.007). Age and VFA was higher in osteopenic group compared with normal group, and BMI was lower in osteopenic group compared with normal group. Age was higher in osteoporosis group compared with normal group, and the BMI was lower in osteoporosis group compared with normal group. The age was higher in osteoporosis group compared with osteopenic group. The above differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Although there was no statistical difference in VFA and SFA between osteopenic group and osteoporosis group, the VFA and SFA was higher in osteopenic group compared with osteoporosis group. BMD of male lumbar spine was negatively correlated with age ( r=-0.542, P<0.001), VFA( r=-0.104, P<0.001), and positively correlated with BMI ( r=0.109, P<0.001). After controlling for age and BMI, BMD was still negatively correlated with VFA ( r=-0.129, P<0.05). Conclusions:Males with abdominal obesity is more likely to manifest as low bone mass. The lumbar BMD is possibly negatively correlated with visceral adipose tissue in male.

Methods The aging models were induced by D-galactose in 3-month old rats, and the learning and memory ability of aging model was detected in model MG-2 maze. The activity of SOD, CAT and GSH-Px in brain cortex, cerebellum,hippocampus, striatum and hypothalamus were detected immediately after rats were executed. Results The learning and memory ability of D-ga-lactose aging model was lower than that of control group. The difference of antioxidant enzyme activity among different rat brain areas was significant. The correct response rate of D-galactose aging model was( 58.9 ± 5.4 ) %, which is significantly lower than that of the control group (66.8 ±8.9) %, P < 0.05. The times of response required reaching the standard after 24h of aging model rats was significantly higher than that of the control( Aging group :29.5 ± 12.8, Control group 16.6 ± 6.2; P< 0.01 ). Correct response rate after 24h was significantly lower than that of the control ( Aging group :67.3 ± 10.3 , Control group: 79.1 ± 6.9; P< 0.01 ). The SOD activity in cortex, hippocampus and striatum( Aging group :66.12 ±5.89,80.46 ± 6.57,87.82 ± 6.87; Control group :57.63 ± 4.21,67.46 ± 6.80,68.37 ± 6.52) significantly reduced ( P < 0.05 and P < 0.01 ).The CAT activity in cortex, hippocampus, striatum and hypothalamus( Aging group :6.45 ± 0.55,5.86 ±0.35,6.93 ± 0.63,8.89 ± 0.38; Control group :5.32 ± 0.56,4.76 ± 0.38,4.37 ± 043,6.11 ± 0.37) significantly reduced ( P < 0.05 and P < 0.01 ). GSH-Px activity was similar in each brain area without significance ( P > 0.05 ). Conclusions The learning and memory ability of aging mode rats decreased. The change of antioxidant enzyme activities in hippocampus, cortex, striatum and hypothalamus is closely related to learning and memory ability.

		                        			Objective To detect point mutations of the PRNP in 10 sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) patients. Methods Priori protein gene open reading frame was amplified by PCR of genomic DNA extracted from peripheral blood leukocytes. Products were sequenced and digested with restriction endonuc lease Nsp I to check the phenotype at codon 129. Results Two CJD patients were confirmed at autopsy. One full sequencing of the PRNP open reading frame revealed normal, but the other revealed a single novel mutation consisting of a cytosine-to-guanine substitution at nucleotide 729, causing asparagine to replace glutamic acid at codon 211. Among 8 probable CJD patients, 2 full sequencing of the PRNP open reading frame revealed anadenine-to-guanine substitution at nucleotide 751, causing lysine to replace glutamic acid at codon 219. The patients were methionine homozygosity at codon 129. Conclusions The E211D mutation was identified in a confirmed CJD patient. The novel point mutation might be associated with familial CJD. However, E219K identified in 2 possible CJD patients was included in polymorphism of the PRNP as well as M129V. Analysis of PRNP plays an important role for diagnose of familial priori disease.
